After every use, the garment must be hand washed. Harmful elements such as suntan lotions, salt, chlorine, and body perspiration can cause discoloration and spandex breakdown. Since laundry detergents are too harsh on the spandex and the color, use mild hand soap made without added moisturizers. Do not wring the swimsuit to remove excess water. Lay it flat on a towel and roll the towel up and squeeze gently. Remove it from the towel and lay it flat to dry. Do not hang it to dry as that will stretch out the fibers in the fabric. Avoid using washers and dryers as damage can occur due to agitation and excessive heat. It is also important to let your suit "rest" between uses. This allows the spandex to bounce back (called recovery) to its original size and maintain its fit longer. If you wear a suit without letting it recover, it will lose its shape and fit more quickly. It's recommended to let the suit rest for 24-36 hours between uses. Always remove excess moisture with a towel and lay flat to dry indoors or in the shade. Also note, direct sunlight will fade your suit. It is always a great idea to have more than one suit.

Flattering and classic!I have a long torso and have a hard time finding classic, attractive swimwear that is conservative and fits my long torso and large bust. I paired this with black brief bottoms that are a little more high waisted and WOW, a perfect solution! I appreciate the cup support and the flattering, tummy-minimizing cut. I used my measurements to select a size and it fit like a dream. Size 14 with DD busts and it provided a great fit and support. Great swimwear that makes you feel like a classic movie star.

Very flattering and flattening swimsuitI tried on swimsuits in the store and not one fit or flattered. This suit does both. I like the cut on the bra line and the back is high enough to hide any "back fat." But mainly it is how well it minimizes my tummy. And the style is very nice. I would recommend this suit to anyone, also at an affordable price compared to store prices.

NOT FOR LONG BODIES!The top is really pretty. I'm returning the bottoms for the high-top bottoms because there was a gap between the top and the bottom, and I feel more comfortable more covered up.

Beautiful suitHad to return this item...didn't quite fit

Best Answer:This is a tankini which is a top and a bottom. If it was just a top it would be named top instead of tankini. Also, when the site offers you to choose a top size as well as the bottom size, than that means it includes both top/bottom.
